we6boss Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I want to know how I could transfer not only my saved games, but also my edited stats and stuff? Thanks in advance! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Yes no problem. Simply put your stuff on to something like a usb stick and that should do. Remember to make sure that your have the same patch on your new computer that you had on the old on or things might not work correctly or at all.

we6boss Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 Thanks! Which files and folders do I transfer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton162 Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Copy the save games files from: My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2009/games to a USB stick. Then paste those files into the same folder on your new PC. It's the same for graphics and any other files that you want as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 And matches, dbs, etc. In fact, you could copy the whole Football Manager 2009 folder if you wanted- you'd probably need an external harddrive for that though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
we6boss Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 Thanks guys! How much space you think I need to copy the databases from one pc to another? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhoy! Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Thanks guys! How much space you think I need to copy the databases from one pc to another? Well go check the folder and see what size the databases are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robzilla Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Well go check the folder and see what size the databases are. The databases are typically about 100-150MB. Your save game could be anything from a few MB to a few hundred depending on how many leagues you have loaded and how far you are into the game. Your graphics folder again could be anything from a few MB to hundreds or even thousands. As an example, currently my entire FM09 folder in "My Documents" is 700MB, the entire FM09 folder from "Program Files" is 1.9GB (but that includes all versions of the database, you really only need 9.0.3) and my save game is 190MB (I've got about 20 divisions loaded from about 10 nations and I'm quite far into the game - 2032) A 2GB memory stick or a DVD would do that lot easily, or an even easier way would be to network your new laptop with your old comp and copy it all across that.

Cardiovascular Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 If you don't have a usb stick, set a messenger account up on each pc and transfer them that way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robzilla Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 If you don't have a usb stick, set a messenger account up on each pc and transfer them that way. Or email or FTP or a site like FileFront or RapidShare - there are many ways to get the data from one machine to the other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
